Sunflower’s Splendor Watercolor Workshop

Capture the sunflower’s magnificent blooms in watercolor as they reach their peak in the Billings Farm Sunflower House. This workshop, led by Artist-in-Residence, Margaret Dwyer, is designed for painters of all levels. Sunflowers are the perfect subject for this medium because they are so bright and bold and the class will focus on the importance of brushwork and mark making. The most challenging aspect will be choosing a favorite bloom. 

This workshop is $65/person, $60/members with materials included. Advanced registration is recommended. Register now!
